Bala -

my understanding is that Sun got the Cray technology for the UE10000 and SGI kept the technology that resulted in the Origin 2000.

Do you know how well the Origin 2000 is doing in the commercial market/HPC market? I have seen 0 penetration of the Origin2000 as a Database server for DW or ERP - is the Origin2000 strictly for the HPC/technical marketplace? Is SGI trying to compete in these markets at all and why did they leave this technology for Sun?
